It will be a challenge, but you have a plan. The biggest hurdle will be to replicate the front MB axle. The steering pivot mounts to the axle on the MB, where the 2A mounts to the frame cross member. The MB had a bad habit of brake steering when the binders are applied in hast, then you might end up in the rubarb. The 2A set up is a much better design, but to do an accurate tribute, then that will need to be addressed. The rest of the MB traits will be mostly body work.

LarrBeard is right about the typical Heep salad we usually see when taking on a 70 plus year old Jeep. It is rare to find a survivor that is intact. The military variants were civilianized, loosing the 24 volt goodies, or12 volt in the case of the MB.
